A. J. Hinckley built this sloop on Waldron Island, WA in 1894. Lawrence Kelly purchased it. Kelly smuggled Chinese immigrants, opium, and wine. Kelly had fought as a Confederate soldier in the Civil War and swore to never earn a legitimate income while under the domain of the Union. He was however, nonviolent, unlike the other smuggler with whom the newspapers often confused him, Jim “Pig-iron” Kelly.
